WORD OF ADMONITION:
The Exploitation of the “Family”
There are a lot of so-called ministries today which set out to restore Christian family life and “values.” It has become a growth industry for professional meddling in
“the church.” It seems the more they “help,” the worse it becomes.
At first, I thought I was imagining this oddity. But after working in the pastoral ministry – inside the veil, so to speak – I came to realize that the clergy deliberately exploit unhappy spouses to justify their livelihoods and their idleness.
It is filled with phone calls, “counseling,” gossip, public appearances and
delusions of grandeur.

CATCHPHRASE
“Troublemaker”
1) A “church member” who said something that was in any way negative about “the church and/or pastor.”
“Sean and Kate have shown themselves to be troublemakers and therefore should
be shunned.”
Religion stones you when you're wrong and crucifies you when you are right.

"The Pastoral Office"
“Every expression of the church in the NT refers to a local body of believers.”
Ministry in Obscurity
Jesus had thirty-three years on this planet. I would have set Him up with public ministry as a child. I would have wanted to get as many years as possible for Jesus to make His impact. I would have set up a world tour for Jesus. He could speak to millions all over the world.
Yet the wisdom of God seems foolish to the human perspective.
The Father kept Jesus in hiding for most of His life, only to release Him for His final three years. Jesus spent most of these last years roaming throughout the countryside of Galilee.
There were not a lot of people around there in comparison to the population of the world at that time. He visited the big city a few times, but spent most of His life in obscurity.
The entire world had no clue that the Son of God was currently walking the planet. Throughout Jesus’ short life, He remained within a hundred miles of His hometown.
He held no public position of authority.
Paul Vieira -
Jesus Has Left the Building
Does sitting through a “worship service,” taking sermon notes, and shaking “the pastor's” hand on the way out count as “remembering the Sabbath day to keep it holy?”
